Hello

Not working kernel
7.1.0-rc4-00094-g26bd176a01d1

It is master
commit 27fa82620cbaa89a7fc11ac3057701d598813e87 
where one commit is reverted. 


The problem:
masu at t470 cd /afs/station.com/user 
cd: file too large: /afs/station.com/user

The solution:
masu at t470 systemctl stop cachefilesd.service

After that it works
masu at t470 cd /afs/station.com/user
masu at t470 user % 

If I restart cachefilesd.service that volume works but
not yet mounted volumes not work.

For example:  
masu at t470 systemctl start cachefilesd.service
masu at t470 cd /afs/station.com/tmp/foo
masu at t470 foo % 

but
masu at t470 cd /afs/station.com/common 
cd: file too large: /afs/station.com/common

and if I stop cachefilesd.service
masu at t470 systemctl stop cachefilesd.service
masu at t470 cd /afs/station.com/common 
masu at t470 common % 

Last OK kernel what I have tested was 7.1.0-rc4

It seems that kafs and cachefilesd.service don't work when
volume is mounted the first time.

I have not bisected it but maybe
commit 5dfa01ef37a8b944773aef8dee747cd76dec4234 
causes this regression ?
